| Reverse description | A lion attacking a stag to the left in dynamic high relief; the stag, shown with impressive antlers, is brought to its knees while the lion bites its back and claws at its flank. A crescent symbol appears in the upper left field, and additional Aramaic symbols are visible in the upper right field. In the lower right field, the Aramaic inscription 'MZDY' (Mazaeus) identifies the issuing satrap. The scene is rendered with vigorous naturalism characteristic of Achaemenid-period Cilician coinage. |
